How To Use This Book List

Many of the books here are written for young adults. However, some are definitely adult books. I don't always specify in my comments; however if you are interested in a book, find it at the library. If it's in Juvenile Fiction or Young Adult Fiction, it's usually safe for kids 12-15 (be sure to preview just in case). If the book is found elsewhere, you can always ask a librarian for their input.
Personally, a few swear words don't do much for me, so I don't usually remember they are in there. Other types of content, however, are usually commented on.
Enjoy!!

p.s. Please leave a "care-to-share" (aka, comment) anytime you like.

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children

by Ransom Riggs

What a marvelous tale!  A young boy grows up hearing the fascinating tales of his grandfather's youth as a Jewish refugee in an orphanage in Wales during WWII.  As a teenager, this boy begins to wonder of the truth of these tales.  Deciding they are fiction, he is sorrowful when his grandfather dies a questionable death.  He then embarks on quite an adventure!
Interesting story.  Quick read.  I thoroughly enjoyed it!!
